57 ISO Enhanced for T2S In the coming years, the majority of European CSDs will outsource their settlement activity to a new technical IT platform called TARGET2- Securities (T2S). The customers of those CSDs can connect directly to T2S (they are Directly Connected Parties or DCPs ). However, most of the CSD customers will connect indirectly to T2S. They will do so via their CSD or another DCP and will therefore be called Indirectly Connected Parties or ICPs. Whereas DCPs will be using ISO messages for securities settlement and management, ICPs can (continue to) use the existing ISO messages. Are you aware that these ISO messages have been enhanced to make them compatible with the T2S business processes and data allowing ICPs to take full benefit of T2S functionality and services?
